Race day is as per the ACU regs so providing your bike conforms there should be no proble.
Castle Combe run trackdays for road riders and if a road legal bike turns up there is no reason why it shouldn't pass the noise test.
You can't balme the trackday organisers if racers want to come along with their race bikes and use it for practice.
maybe a blanket ban on racers using it for practice would sort the problem, after all if they want to learn the track they could do it on a road bike
Yes I want to race there, its about 100 miles closer to me than the likes of Cadwell, Oulton and Snetterton so is cheaper for me to do and also easier for my friends to come along. as for points I have already dropped 1 race so can only realy afford to drop one more.
I don't think anybody is having there arm twisted to go along and pay £125 on top of petrol costs etc. and those that choose to go for a trackday have been warned in advance about the strict noise checks and these have been in place on trackdays there since 1998 that I know of.
Noise is a problem at the circuit with many local residents trying to get the circuit closed which is why there have been posts on this board pointing to a petition to be signed to keep the circuit open.
